FastLED_NeoPixel VS Adalight-FastLED

In case it's helpful I wrote my own FastLED to NeoPixel abstraction layer a few months ago (FastLED_NeoPixel). You may be able to borrow from or extend it.

Software and Hardware used: I am using Adalight Fastled (https://github.com/dmadison/Adalight-FastLED) with a WS2812B strip.

Run Adalight with Prismatik.

The sketch I used for the DIY Ambilight can be found here: https://github.com/dmadison/Adalight-FastLED/blob/master/Arduino/LEDstream_FastLED/LEDstream_FastLED.ino

Use this code instead. Define the LED type, data, and clock pins at the top.

Of course, here it is: https://github.com/dmadison/Adalight-FastLED

I have uploaded a sketch Adalight-FastLED to an Arduino Mega. The following description is the requirement for my c# app that is using a slightly modified Ardity to send byte[] instead of strings to the Arduino.

another warning: the off the shelf kits come with a relatively low baked-in baudrate (115200, but confirm with your seller), this might limit your LED framerate, read this, so don't set your software to 360-noscope-fps capture right away... so either you are fine with what you'll get and you leave it at that or you want a higher rate, in which case you'll need to flash it with any other arduino ambilight sketch (such as this) with values that work for your board (any arduino ambilight tutorial on the subject will do)
